No problems after a few hours of use. After unpacking and attaching the seat, I found it full of oil, transmission fluid, battery charged, all bolts and screws tight, nothing missing and ready to gas and go. Cuts well, a little loud, takes some patience to dial in straight line tracking. Cut 4 acres of overgrown land, probably should have been bush hogged instead but the mz54 handled it without complaint. Gave a great finish but on the smaller lot where we currently live. Drinks a bit of gas!

It took more than an hour to uncrate the MZ54S leaving a lot of wood and sharp nails to dispose of. After attaching the seat and figuring out the few things that needed to be connected (seat detector, battery cable, etc.) I was able to gas it up and it started right away. I mowed my 5 acres and it worked very well. Two small issues: 1) the choke was bent at the knob which does not effect it's function but makes it harder to push and pull, and 2) a hose attached the the top of the gas tank (I don't know what it is for) was broken off and I had to reattach it with glue and duct tape.

I bought this mower last year and I really like it so far. Only thing I would add to this mower is a ROPS and rear wheel weights. (Posted on March 18, 2015)

This is a replacement for a RZ4817 Kohler Eingine purchased in 2005. The engine died on me. This new purchase was a good value. It appears to be pretty heavy duty and runs very well. The price on it was the best that I could find on the internet or at retail outlets. even with the $225 shipping and additional $30 liftgate service. You will definitely need the liftgate service. The ccrate is huge and it took me a chain saw to break it down in a reasonable time to get the machine out. (Posted on June 21, 2014)
